    Light Sources

    In order to generate enough excitation light intensity to furnish secondary fluorescence emission capable of detection, powerful light sources were needed. These were usually either mercury or xenon arc (burner) lamps, which produce high-intensity illumination powerful enough to image faintly visible fluorescence specimens. With the introduction of precisExcite® this has now all changed, where instead of high intensity arc lamps the illumination is now provided by high intensity LED /Light Emitting Diodes supplying light fluxes of similar intensities without the any of the drawbacks of conventional arc systems.

    Focusing and Alignment of Arc Lamps

    Mercury and xenon arc lamps are now widely utilized as illumination sources for a large number of investigations in widefield fluorescence microscopy. These lamps all require aligning and focusing the arc lamp in a Mercury or Xenon Burner with the Microscope, but with the advent of precisExcite® this has now been made a thing of the past as zero alignment is required for the 10,000 hour lifetime of the LED source.

    Fluorescence Photomicrography

    Photomicrography under fluorescence illumination conditions presents a unique set of circumstances posing special problems for the microscopist. Exposure times are often exceedingly long, the specimen's fluorescence may fade during exposure, and totally black backgrounds often inadvertently signal light meters to suggest overexposure. Added to this, existing bulb technology further complicates the results achieved as the light output of the bulb degrades very quickly and therefore the microscopist has to determine whether it is bulb degradation or the specimen's fluorescence degradation that he is measuring. The precisExcite® changes all of this as the light output degradation is measured over 1000's of hours of continuous use and not 10's of hours of use. Using this light source, microscopists will be better able to characterize their results as they will not have to correct for bulb intensity degradation in their findings.

    PE100 - Single wavelength unit ( click here to order)

    This source offers intense, stable excitation at a single wavelength.  The user can select from CoolLED's extensive range of LED wavelengths.  It is designed to fit on all current microscopes.  A simple once-ever adjustment will allow optimisation to the optical path of your microscope.

    The pE-100 is supplied as a complete working package with power supply and control pod.   Manual operation offers instant on/off and 0-100% intensity control.  The control pod accepts a BNC-type external TTL trigger.

    Main benefits of the pE-100 are:-

    • No Mercury
      Economical
    • Instant on/off
      Full range of wavelengths available
      0-100% intensity control
    • Simple to install
      Simple to use

    PE1 - 3 wavelength Unit

    The pE-1 LED excitation system is designed for use on all current epi-fluorescent microscopes.  It provides stable, controllable and intense light.  The Main Unit can drive up to 3 LED wavelengths.  It is a modular product which uses LAMs (LED Array Modules) selected from our wide range of LED wavelengths.  These LAMs can be interchanged by the user so that different wavelengths can be excited depending on the application.

    pE-1 system: Key Features:

    • Modular system which drives up to 3 wavelengths
    • Switch on and off instantly
    • Adjust light intensity in 1% steps (0-100%)
    • Stable, repeatable light intensity
    • LEDs last for tens of thousands of hours
    • Wide range of LED wavelengths available
    • Integrated with many imaging software packages
    • Quiet & cool operation

    Click here to select wavelengths and configure your pE-1 system 

    Typical applications for pE-1 systems:

    With a CoolLED LED product, you will....

    • Never have to re-align your light source
    • No warm-up or cool-down period required
    • No need to use ND filters
    • No need to use shutters
    • No bulb safety and disposal issues

     

    pE-1 Collimator CoolLED

    The pE-1 collimator fits to your microscope's epi-fluorescent port.  Two light-guides deliver the LED excitation from the Main Unit.  The collimator contains a fixed combining dichroic mirror to bring both light channels into a single collimated beam.  Adaptors for all leading microscopes are available.  A range of additional LAMs can be purchased as well as accessories such as the Dual Adapt which allows a secondary light source to be fitted to the microscope in addition to the CoolLED pE system

     

    4-wavelength excitation system 

     

     

    The pE-2 LED excitation system is designed for use on all current epi-fluorescent microscopes.  It provides stable, controllable and intense light.  The Main Unit can drive up to 4 LED wavelengths.  It is a modular product which uses LAMs (LED Array Modules) selected from our wide range of LED wavelengths.  These LAMs can be interchanged by the user so that different wavelengths can be excited depending on the application.

    pE-2 system: Key Features:

    • Modular system which drives up to 4 wavelengths
    • Switch on and off instantly
    • Adjust light intensity in 1% steps (0-100%)
    • Stable, repeatable light intensity
    • LEDs last for tens of thousands of hours
    • Wide range of LED wavelengths available
    • Integrated with many imaging software packages
    • Quiet & cool operation
    • pE-2 collimator with exchangeable dichroic mirror for full flexibility
    • Accepts excitation filters for fast-switching applications

    pE-2 Collimator CoolLED

    The pE-2 collimator fits to your microscope's epi-fluorescent port.  Two light-guides deliver the LED excitation from the Main Unit.  The collimator contains an exchangeable combining dichroic mirror to bring both light channels into a single collimated beam.  This means that you can easily swap the dichroic mirror if you select new LED wavelength LAMs and require the mirror at a different wavelength position.  You can also transfer your excitation filters to the pE-2 collimator for Dual Staining / Fast-switching applicationsngth
